seeing it through
It’s just a matter of holding on and seeing it through.

Many of you have recently expressed your concerns to me about the general doom and gloom in the world today, especially in the light of the current recession. It’s at times like this that it’s easy to feel hopeless and helpless, but good times will always follow the bad – it’s just a matter of holding on and seeing it through.

When you’re up against a trouble, seeing it through
Meet it squarely, face to face;
Lift your chin and set your shoulders,
Plant your feet and take a brace.

When it’s vain to try to dodge it,
Do the best that you can do;
You may fail, but you may conquer -
See it through!


Black may be the clouds about you
And your future may seem grim,
But don’t let your nerve desert you;
Keep yourself in fighting trim.


Even hope may seem but futile,
When with troubles you’re beset,
But remember you are facing
Just what others may have met.

You may fail, but fall still fighting;
Don’t give up, whate’er you do;
Eyes front, head high to the finish –
See it through
